As he drove back from the air-
port, that thought stuck with him.
Herold and James L. Palmer
fleshed out the idea and wrote
the screenplay together. Palmer
also served as a co-producer
and created the music for the
film.
“I like writing with other peo-
ple,” said Herold. “I find it easier
to bounce ideas off and write
down the best stuff. He killed
it on the music. I told him what
I was looking for and he came
back with great stuff!”
Herold’s “day job” is working as
digital imaging technician (DIT).
He’s worked on several televi-
sion shows over the years and
describes the position as the
person who works between the
camera crew in the field and the
editors (generally located in ei-
ther Los Angeles or New York).
“I basically take all the footage
and the audio that they shoot
and back it up on hard drives,”
explained Herold. “I go through
it and make notes on what
they’ve shot and all that stuff.
